[Three Kingdoms] I am the queen of the Great Wei Dynasty

Wancheng.

Zhangxiu mansion.

"In my humble opinion, the battle between Cao Mengde and Yuan Benchu ​​is imminent. Under the fierce battle, both sides will surely die and die. I don't know whether the master thinks we should immediately join Yuan Shao, or wait for a while and wait and see what happens?" Zhang Xiu asked. Jia Xu next to him, with a humble tone, personally poured a pot of fragrant tea for him.

Jia Xu didn't reply, and looked at the faintly lingering clouds and smoke in the distance, her eyes were a little distracted.

"Report to the general and the military adviser, Yuan Shao's envoy has arrived." The soldiers came in from the door, then knelt down and reported the report with their fists clasped.

Jia Xu, however, acted as if she had never heard it, still standing there without saying a word, her eyes were as cold as a knife's edge, and she was abnormally quiet.

Hearing this, Zhang Xiu quickly straightened his armor, trotted out to welcome the messenger in the gray-brown robe and took a seat.

The envoy raised his head and chest high, as if he was a master of fate, and even just cupped his hands, half-closed his small mung bean-like eyes, and smiled at Zhang Xiu: "I think the general must know my purpose of coming, and I am honored by Yuan." The dispatch from Jizhou came to form an alliance with the general to discuss the strategy of defeating Cao's army. If it is done, we will share the half of the land south of the Yellow River. I wonder what General Zhang's plan is?"

He twirled his mustache triumphantly, his eyes were full of unquestionable superiority, before Zhang Xiu could speak, Jia Xu beside him laughed softly, flicked his long sleeves, and immediately sat on Zhang Xiu's honorable seat , behaving completely like no one else.

The servants were stunned and stared at him dumbfounded.

But Jia Xu was calm and composed, acting as if he was the real master here, with thin lips slightly curled up, and a smile full of interest.

As soon as his pair of deep purple eyes like a deep pool glanced over, everyone was silent, they couldn't help but look at each other, breathing was affected by his words and deeds.

"Go back and thank Yuan Benchu ​​for me, and tell him," he leisurely rested his head on his hands, leaning sideways on the marble handrail, letting his weight lean slightly.

The slightly frosty long hair was hanging down his arms, and he slowly gave a malicious smile, "If he and Brother Yuan Shu are incompatible, can they accommodate the soldiers of the world?"

The envoy's eyes widened immediately, and he didn't expect him to answer like this, so he froze in place, speechless.

Zhang Xiu also panicked when he heard the words, "Sir!"

His mind went blank, he turned his head to ask Jia Xu for help at a loss, and subconsciously pulled the latter's long sleeves, completely unsure of how to deal with the situation at hand, frowning and spreading his hands, he sighed at the messenger in a daze.

Jia Xu quietly made a gesture in a low voice, signaling him not to act rashly, and then gave him a firm look, which seemed to mean - "Everything is up to me".

Zhang Xiu suddenly felt as if he had taken a reassurance, and the whole person quieted down, shaking his hands like the warriors standing on both sides: "Hurry up and see off the guests!"

"Yes!" The guard came back to his senses in an instant, walked up to the messenger with his scabbard in hand, bowed his head and stretched his arms, ignoring the stunned expression on the other side's face, "My lord, please."

"You, you... you are not afraid of rejecting my lord's alliance of good intentions..."

Before the words finished, Jia Xu interrupted bluntly and sneered: "What are we afraid of? Could it be that Yuan Benchu ​​still has that extra energy to deal with us? I'm afraid he is still worried about his youngest son's illness!"

"My lord, please don't make it difficult for the villain." The guard did not wait for the envoy's reply, and politely gave the order to evict the guest, but his tone did not allow refutation.

"You wait for me! Just wait for your own fruit!" The envoy glared fiercely at them, but Jia Xu didn't even look at him.

He kept cursing in his mouth: "I really don't know what to do, Yuan Jizhou will come to exterminate you group of domineering youngsters immediately, let's see if you dare to pretend to be a tiger."

When his voice disappeared from the end, the faint uneasiness swept over his heart again. Zhang Xiu looked at Jia Xu in a panic, and asked tremblingly: "First... sir, now that we have offended Yuan Benchu, what should we do?"

"Don't panic, general." Jia Xu's face was always calm and composed, which was in stark contrast to the lord who was younger than himself. He slowly got up from his position, smiled and looked around, "If you dare to do this , that is, I have already planned a place for you - right now there is an unborn master who is hundreds of times better than Yuan Benchu."

"I don't know who the gentleman is talking about? I hope to express it clearly."

"Cao Sikong."

Jia Xu said three words succinctly, and then fell silent.

Zhang Xiu was really shocked, and hurriedly said: "I have a bloody feud with Cao Mengde, and it all came from your plan, sir. Don't be afraid that we will be taken revenge by him. Isn't this self-inflicted?"

Jia Xu couldn't help bending his lips to look at him, his eyes were confident and deep, and said: "I dare to guarantee the lives of the whole family, Cao Sikong will not dare to hurt the general, if he is so narrow-minded, he will definitely lose. I have never done this before I am sure, he will trust the general, so not only will you be unscathed, but you will also enjoy the glory and wealth in peace."

Zhang Xiu was puzzled, but when he was about to ask, Jia Xu leaned over and whispered something to the guard beside him. After a few seconds, the guard nodded knowingly, and a moment after he walked out, a group of people came in behind him.

The man in the head was imposing and dignified, wearing a black robe trimmed with silver thread and embroidered with unicorns. After catching a glimpse of Zhang embroidery, he leaned over politely: "Liu paid a visit to General Zhang. I heard that the general was young and brave, and he was in Wancheng. Seeing it today really deserves its reputation."

This person is Liu Ye, a member of the clan of the Han Dynasty. His noble background and upbringing make him look elegant, but he speaks modestly, which makes Zhang Xiu feel a bit downgraded. He bowed back and said: "Mr. I really can't bear it, Mr. Liu is absurd."

Liu Ye had already heard the news from the spies, so he naturally had the bottom line in his heart, and said: "Liu came here this time under the entrustment of Sikong, you know that Sikong can't advance or retreat now, even though his army is weaker than Yuan Shaoran, he has no choice but to attack." Fa, I urgently need your help and support. I also hope that you can cooperate with Sikong to fight against Yuan Jizhou and conspire the world!"

With Jia Xu's determination to provide confidence, Zhang Xiu bowed his hand generously, glanced at Jia Xu, stared at Liu Ye after the latter nodded and said: "Mr. I hope Sikong will not abandon this small army and take Zhang in for now."

At this time, Jia Xu, who had been silent all this time, suddenly opened his mouth with piercing eyes: "Wancheng's soldiers, horses, food and grass are not much, and Yuan Benchu ​​may not take it to heart, but I know very well that these must be needed by Sikong."

He didn't know whether he was speaking to Zhang Xiu or Liu Ye.

"Exactly!" Liu Ye was surprised, and secretly sighed at Jia Xu's witty words, "Sikong attaches great importance to General Zhang's help, and with your statement, Liu can go back to work with confidence."

Zhang Xiu hurriedly said: "Please sit down first, you have come here from a long way without hesitation, Zhang will immediately arrange a dinner for the distinguished guests."

Since stepping into Zhang Xiu's territory, Ah Sheng felt uncomfortable all over, and his back was sweating coldly.What happened three years ago is still lingering in her throat. If she didn't want to test Jia Xu's tone, how could she come to this place where she still has lingering fears.

After quietly following the envoys headed by Liu Ye, she also sat down with everyone.

"Meet you again, Mrs. Bian." The bewitching voice sounded slowly, and it seemed that there was still a playful smile, but it unintentionally hit her heart like a thunderbolt, shaking A Sheng all over.The mind drove the subconscious to take a few steps back, and couldn't help but gasp.

Raising his eyes tremblingly, he was facing a pair of dark purple bewitching eyes and that handsome but cold face.

Like the frost on an iceberg, he was obviously calm and composed, but there was a sense of alienation that strangers should not get close to.

She trembled her lips and didn't speak. Seeing a smile slowly appearing on his lips, she smiled as if no one was there: "Long time no see, Mrs. Bian is still so beautiful, she hasn't changed at all."

What he said was inexplicable, which made her open her mouth, not knowing how to answer.Veins popped up on her forehead, and she really wanted to swear the bad words brewing in her heart, but she refrained from speaking—he is not only Jia Xu, but also represents Zhang Xiu, and most importantly, Zhang Xiu and Zhang Xiu. The support of its soldiers and horses.

His cheeks twitched, Ah Sheng could only squeeze back the breath he couldn't swallow, and stared at him fiercely, staring at him angrily.

"General Zhang is holding a banquet today, and I hope that the distinguished guests will not think the vulgar things in Wancheng are despicable, and they can come back with a lot of fun."

But he seemed to turn a blind eye, and even slightly hooked his lips happily, looked away with a smile, looked around everyone, and waved his hand to invite everyone to sit down.

Zhang Xiu also immediately acted as a host to signal to the servants to serve the plate, and took the lead in pouring a full jug of wine, toasting to invite a drink: "Zhang hereby presents a toast to everyone! I wish you all peace, happiness, prosperity, and prosperity!"

Then they drank it all in one gulp. When everyone saw this, they immediately raised the bronze wine bottles in their hands, laughed and said: "We also wish General Zhang and Junshi Jia all the best and good luck!"

Although Wancheng is not a big place, the cooks are very good. The skill of roasting drunken shrimp with salt is extremely exquisite, and the taste is endless aftertaste.

So Ah Sheng temporarily suppressed the unhappiness in her heart, and concentrated on eating the delicacies on the plate. Unexpectedly, just as she was peeling the shrimp, a strange voice came to her ear: "Ms. Bian is very interested."

The shrimp shell in her hand was almost shaken, she looked up in panic, and was looking at Jia Xu's dark amethyst-like eyes, so deep that it was impossible to see to the bottom at a glance.

She tried her best to overcome the fear and hatred welling up in her heart, and replied calmly, "Yes."

Hearing this, he squinted his eyes with great interest: "This is cooked by the best chef in Wancheng, and I specially designated it for my wife's delicacy."

"Thank you."

What does he mean by this, does he know that he can eat well?

Resisting the urge to roll her eyes, she sneered in her heart, and saw him unhurriedly pick up the fish on the plate, and said slowly: "Madam, you are welcome, but it is just what I should do."

My God, could there be a more embarrassing conversation than this... Ah Sheng sneered in his heart, but he could only maintain a polite smile on his face, and replied mechanically and politely: "Please trouble Mr. Jia."

Jia Xu seemed to have figured out her psychological activities, and did not continue this meaningless exchange. She smiled slightly, and then took the arm of a young girl with light makeup behind her, as if saying something to her.

The girl understood immediately, and went straight to Ah Sheng and bowed to salute, and said in a low voice under the latter's puzzled gaze: "Hello, Mrs. Bian."

A Sheng didn't know what the girl was doing, and she didn't know who she was, so she heard Jia Xu's introduction in a daze: "She is my youngest daughter, she just got old this year, first come to see Mrs. Bian."

Hearing this, Ah Sheng couldn't help but carefully looked at the girl in front of her eyes, and saw that she was wearing a crimson brocade skirt, she looked slim and tall, her slender eyebrows were as thin as willow leaves, and her almond eyes were beautiful dark purple, which looked like a very beautiful girl. Jia Xu.

Unexpectedly, such a dark person would have such a handsome and polite daughter, she couldn't help sighing secretly for a while.

"What's your name?"

The girl bowed respectfully, stood up slightly, and her voice was like a bell being blown by the wind at the corner of the eaves, clear and sweet: "The little girl's name is Tumi, the Tumi of the Tumi flower."

"Tumi...a nice name." Ah Sheng savored it carefully, and couldn't help observing her facial features again.

The line of sight traces the outline of her clear and soft face. Although the chin is pointed, it does not appear slender. On the contrary, it adds a livelyness that is unique to this age.

There is also a faint smile on her cheeks, the peach-like color is touching and innocent, and she looks good when she smiles.

Ah Sheng couldn't help smiling back: "It's so beautiful."

Although she didn't quite understand why Jia Xu chose to name her daughter like this——Tumi is beautiful, but when it blooms, it will be late spring, no matter how brilliant and full it is, it is just a blink of an eye, everything is short-lived like a flash in the pan That's all.

"Mrs. Xie Bian's compliment." Tu Mi humbly leaned over to thank her, the excitement of being praised flashed in her eyes, and Ah Sheng couldn't help smiling. Fortunately, she didn't inherit her father's Abyss City Mansion, and she was still so pure and sincere. The loveliest beauty in the world.

"Where's your mother?"

"My mother has been ill all the time. She is recuperating at home according to the doctor's orders, so she is unable to come out to see guests. I hope Madam will forgive me."

A Sheng shook his head quickly: "It's okay, it's okay, I really offended you. Lingtang is from Liangzhou, and Jia Xu... no, the same as Jia Junshi?"

Tu Mi replied "Yes", although she didn't understand what she meant by asking this question, but she still answered with restraint: "My mother and father are both from Liangzhou, and the distance between my grandfather's house and my father's residence is only half a mile."

"That's it..." A Sheng sighed regretfully, "Xiliang's daughter is indeed a beauty. Then your father and mother must be very affectionate since they were young, right?"

"The little girl has lived with her mother since she was born, and she never saw her father before she was ten years old. Five years ago, my father brought us here. He was very kind to me, but he has always been indifferent to my mother. I asked Mother why, but she just kept silent and refused to talk to me, so the little girl thought... there must be a reason for all of this."

After all, it was a girl's heart, and she blurted out the dissatisfaction stuffed in her heart to a person she had just met not long ago, but her eyes were secretly red.
